Wrought iron, known for its malleability and strength, has been a fundamental material in architecture, art, and machinery for centuries. While its favorable properties have made it a go-to material for many applications, wrought iron is not immune to the inevitable forces of nature, particularly oxidation, which leads to rust. Rust, primarily hydrated iron oxide, forms when oxygen reacts with iron in the presence of moisture. This chemical reaction can be seen as an adversary to the durability of wrought iron, but this is where the concept of will comes into play.
